Description

The statue stands in side profile, facing right, on a dark plinth against a plain grey backdrop. The head wears a wreath of leaves and fruit over short hair, and the arms are held close to the body. A long garment with vertical folds falls to the ankles, and the feet wear sandals, while the stone surface is pitted and worn in places.
